The violemt thunderstorm that'

winds at the local area Monday
evening may have announced in
loud ,thunderous tones the end
of the worst drought in local his.-
tory.
THE EIGHT-TENTHS of an
inch 'of rain: that fell from the
ne-wsrnaking storm and two sub
sequtint showers was the heaviest
rainfall since the start of the
drought, ninteen week ago.
It hosted the total precipitation
for the month to one and a quar
ter inches; which although less
than one-half the normal amount
for the first three week of August
is nearly tivice the total precipita
tion for all:of July. •
Before ;the longest and most
severe 'drought in history can be
broken, several more inches of
rain !must fall. Howe v e r, the
chanCes of .additional rainfall
looks brighter than they have in
many. weeks.
For the duration of the droughl,

high, last year, according to the
findings of the annual census just

Pennsylvania ranks el g h t h

Considering the community of
students and teachers• as well as
past and future military personnel
in the area, the 'hliteer play was
well selected to enable a majority
of the audience to spend the eve
ning laughing uproariously at
itself.
the upper level winds blew from
northwesterly direction with great
persistence. Such a northwesterly
flow aloft transports cool, dry
Canadian air into the Common
wealth, and thus precipitation is
kept to a minimum:
East weekend, these winds were
obgeived to shift into the south
west.' and hot moist tropical air
was caried • swiftly northward by
them. Temperatures and humid
ities soared, and Monday after
now! " the mercury touched 92
degrees.
It was the combination of high
temperatures and a high atmos
pheric moisture content that trig
gered widespread shower .and
thunderstorm activity in the.state.
It is' believed that this new
circulation pattern should coUtinue
for a while. so more precipitation
is forecast for the weeks ahead.
Monday's severe thunderstorm
was attended by vivid destruc
tive; cloud-to-groupd lightning,
hailstorms up to one inch- in
diarnenter and wind gusts 'of 48
miles an hour.
